Hi~

It is my understanding that no Workman's Compensation "benefit" is taxable - regardless of what state.

Amounts you receive as workers' compensation for an occupational sickness or injury are fully exempt from tax if they are paid under a workers' compensation act or a statute in the nature of a workers' compensation act. The exemption also applies to your survivors.

If part of your workers' compensation reduces your Social Security or equivalent railroad retirement benefits received, that part is considered Social Security benefits and maybe taxable.

If you return to work after qualifying for workers' compensation, payments you continue to receive while assigned to light duties are taxable.

The above relates to federal income taxes. Generally, states follow the same rule, but you should check with your state's department of revenue for additional information.

Yes it is a workmans comp if he was scheduled to come in or he had an appointment. Massachusetts Yes it is a workmans comp if he was scheduled to come in or he had an appointment. Massachusetts Answer #2 You better check with workman's comp. I know of a case where a fellow employee fell in the bathroom at work and was denied payments because it was not considered "work related". In this particular case, the company turned it in as workman's comp but it was refused.
